. Comment on J0414+3418 . The source is unresolved at 8 GHz with VLA-A (Wilkinson et al. 1998); and our image agrees with the 2.3 GHz image in the VLBA Calibrators database. The correlation position was 15" from the core position, so there may be some smoothing in our image. VLBApls home page . Last modified: 16 Oct 2000

USING THE CORRELATION BETWEEN ISGRI SURVEY RESULTS AND OTHER CATALOGUES TO AID SOURCE IDENTIFICATION John B. Stephen, A. Malizia and L. Bassani IASF-INAF, Via P. Gobetti 101, 40129 Bologna, ITALY, E-mail: stephen@iasfbo.inaf.it ABSTRACT In order to help in the identification of INTEGRAL/ISGRI sources, we have developed a software package which allows a rapid and detailed cross-correlation to be performed between various source catalogues. ... We show below some preliminary results from this analysis. ...
